RE: Art and Mystery on the Saint-Jacque’s Way: Palencia, Santa Eufemia de Cozuelos
stunning pics! I'm sure that place had tons to offer any photographer and you didn't have to search far for inspiration
I certainly agree with you. In reality, and from a general perspective, these types of places offer really beautiful photographs without costing another effort to focus correctly. The good, however, comes when one has the opportunity to enter into it. It is there where the difficulty really begins, because it is necessary to look for the best angles, to experiment with the contrasts of the shadow and the light and also sometimes, when certain dates allow it, those tricks' or special effects of the time', as I call them, with which the medieval stonemasons endowed some of the capitals so that they were illuminated, playing with the faith of the believers. I mean by this, that the real practice of photography, in this kind of places, starts from the inside out. Cordial greetings and thank you very much for your comment.
